In northern America, there are 3 reputable clubs: the AKC (American Kennel Club), the UKC (United Kennel Club) and the CKC (Canadian Kennel Club).
These organizations do a variety of things, but their main purpose is the registration of purebred dogs. The AKC requires genetic testing and inspects breeders.
There are other clubs in the United States that offer you a way of registering a dog or litter, such as the CKC (Continental Kennel Club), the ACA (American Canine Association), and others.
They are VANITY registries for unsuspecting puppy buyers and unscrupulous backyard breeders. Registration does not require proof the dog is purebred, that genetic testing was done, or much of anything else. As a result, the papers you get from them are worth not even the paper they are printed on
